Description
The Bodytone Solid Grow SG50 is a dual-function machine combining a leverage squat station and a standing calf raise station, taking Olympic 50 mm plates with a recommended maximum load of 115 kg. Professional price: 2,148 EUR excluding VAT.
Two lower-body stations on one frame
Squats and calf raises are usually two separate purchases, and calf machines are among the least used pieces on a small gym floor – not because members avoid the exercise, but because a dedicated frame cannot justify its footprint. Combining both on one lever mechanism solves that: the squat station carries the machine, and the calf function is effectively free floor area.
The guided lever path makes heavy squatting workable without a spotter, which is the practical requirement in a studio or home gym where a user often trains alone.

Who specifies it
Small and mid-sized gyms, independent coaches running lower-body strength sessions, and premium home gyms wanting one machine to cover legs. The Solid Grow range is positioned for these sites rather than for high-traffic club floors, where a heavier plate-loaded squat machine is the correct specification.
See the rest of the Bodytone Solid Grow range, or the wider plate-loaded machine selection for heavier alternatives.
Plates, storage and floor build-up
Budget for the plates as part of the purchase, not after it. A 50 kg set per machine matches the recommended load rating and is enough for most programmes; buying the machine without plates is the most common reason a new leg station sits unused for its first month.
Check the floor build-up as well. Plate-loaded lower-body machines put concentrated point loads through their feet and are loaded and unloaded repeatedly, so a rubber tile floor rated for general gym use may need a heavier specification directly under the machine and at the plate storage position.
Frequently asked questions
Can the squat be performed safely alone?
Yes. The lever arm keeps the movement path fixed and the load stays on the machine rather than on the user shoulders in a free position, so a failed repetition does not require a spotter.
Are plates included?
No. The machine takes standard Olympic 50 mm discs. We normally quote a 50 kg plate set per machine, which matches the recommended load rating.
Can both functions be used in one session?
Yes, and that is the usual pattern: squat sets on the lever arm followed by calf raises on the same frame, without re-racking or moving to another machine.
